DAILY READINGS: Esther 1; Zechariah 11; Revelation 18

They saw the young child with Mary His mother, and [they] fell down, and worshipped him: and…they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh. And being warned of God… they departed into their own country another way. Matt. 2:11-12

Upon arriving at the house where the Lord was, the wise men gave evidence of saving faith. First, the object of their faith was correct, they worshipped Christ and no one else; the order of their faith was correct, they bowed down and parted with their treasures; and the outcome of their faith was correct—they went home “another way”, safe and forever changed by the event. Wise men and women will do the same when they follow God’s leading and come to Him. —Mark Kolchin

Hallelujah! I have found Him, Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings; through His blood I now am saved.—Clara T. Williams
